electrostatics - How can the potential on a cube's surface replicate the potential of a point particle?


If i have a cube (either hollow, or an insulating solid) and i want its surface have a potential such that it looks like a point particle outside of the box does that mean the exact potential on the cube itself is the same as the potential of a point particle?
